Halloween Havoc!
To Kaishin Briefs: Is your name a Dragonball reference? Anyway, I think they will be surprised to see a female member of the Starr family. And you can bet a few of the X-Girls will not like Jennifer Hendrix Starr. Don't worry, we'll see Duncan Matthews get what's coming to him. I just have to find a way to bring it up. And Scott will be driven plenty crazy. You want to write a Misfit-verse story? And sure, you can use my characters? Let me know if you want any information on them. Oh yeah, Red Witch is a her. Oh, and if you get permission, I'll gladly beta-read the story for you. You know, you send a copy to me, and I read it and help you fix it up. Spelling errors, grammar errors, stuff like that.
To SickmindedSucker: Yeah, the guys are in trouble. Yeah, Johnny B. Goode is kind of like Inspector Gadget with all the things in his coat. The trick coat was all an idea I thought up for a good laugh. I'm glad you liked the Southside Misfits. They were created by Aaron, a reviewer and fan of my stories. He gave me the characters and I loved them. They made their first appearance in my Misfit-verse in the story "Rockin' in the Southside", which is set in their native Chicago. You should read and review it. It guest-stars the X-Men's Shadowcat and the East Coast Misfits' Red Dragon! Here's the new chapter, I hope you!
To c-wolf: I'm glad you liked the last chapter, c-wolf! I hope you like this new one!
To Sparky Genocide: I'd call that bet, Sparky! I don't think the girls will like her very much. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this new chapter!
To Red Witch: Yeah, a talking Lockheed would invite trouble, and most likely run his big mouth. I've been keeping up with "This Soap Opera Called Life", Red. I read the chapter, and I realized that I knew that Trask's son was a mutant! Oh well, love your new stuff, and I hope you like the new chapter!
To Raliena: Hey Rae! Yeah, the X-Boys screw up regularly, don't they? Anyway, here's the new chapter for you! Enjoy the insanity! I'll let them know to contact you.
To Aaron: I thought Scott's reaction was funny, too. I think the X-Boys going ga-ga over Jenni will be great. I'm glad you like the chapter, and don't worry, the X-Girls will be tortured during this story! Well, here's the new chapter! I hope you like it!

Chapter 3: Met your Match!
The supermarket
Eric Phillips, the indestructible, super-strong Southside Misfit drummer code-named Trouble, was buying some food for the Halloween party the X-Mansion was holding. Johnny B had zipped back to the Southside Misfits' headquarters, a firehouse in their native Chicago, to pick up their costumes. Duncan Matthews walked by. The football player knocked himself, into Eric on purpose, causing the African-American mutant to crash into the display, spilling the snacks he bought. Duncan snickered as he walked away. Eric grumbled and cursed under his breath. He picked up a can of soup and pitched it at Duncan, clocking him in the back of the head.
"OW!" Duncan held his head and turned, glaring at Eric. "What's your problem?"
"You knocked into me, you &$#!" Eric snapped.
"You have no proof!" Duncan sneered.
"You don't want to mess with me." Eric warned. He picked up a tin can and ripped in two. Duncan's eyes widened.
"You're a mutie!"
"Yeah. So what if I am? I heard your mama was one, too. Explains how she had a kid as ugly and as stupid as you." Eric sneered.
"Your kind's not welcome here."
"Mutants have to eat too, baboon boy. Just go home and get back to doing what you do best: Sitting around and scratching your butt." Eric scowled.
"That's it!" Duncan threw a punch. Eric caught it and started squeezing, making Duncan scream. His screams were accompanied by the sounds of Duncan's fingers being broken. Eric lifted up the football player, and pitched him into a display rack, causing it to fall over. Eric angrily grabbed a third can and whacked Duncan across the head with it. He then lifted the groggy Duncan's leg and spiked the can into Duncan's groin like a football player spiking the ball in a touchdown celebration. Eric turned around and he found an angry manager staring at him.
"Uh, is there a problem?" Eric asked like nothing had happened.
The Xavier Institute
"WHAT THE--?" Ray exclaimed. He saw two girls standing at the fountain, talking about it. One had long black hair with red streaks, and was clad in a red turtleneck sweater and black jeans. A silver necklace was around her neck with a pendant shaped like a guitar. The other was a blonde, blue-eyed girl with a four-pointed star over her right eye. She was clad in a Hart Foundation t-shirt with pink-and-red acid-washed jeans. She had on a pink neckerchief around her neck and had black fingerless lace gloves and several bracelets on each wrist.
"That fountain's so beautiful, Jenni." The black-and-red haired girl said.
"Yeah, Vicki. This place is so swank." The blonde girl agreed. They both laughed. "Man, we should get a fountain like this."
"Where the heck would we put it, though?" Vicki wondered. "There isn't a lot of room in the firehouse to put a fountain like this in. Maybe we can get this in a small size or something."
"Uhhh…" Ray blinked. "Do we know any of you?" The two girls looked up at the three X-Boys. "Uhm…hey."
"Hi." Vicki grinned. "I'm Vicki Stephens. They call me Vixen. And this is my friend Jenni Starr. They call her Shining Star."
"Hi." Jenni grinned.
"Uh, hello…" Ray blinked. "You are Kitty's friends, right?"
"Mm-hmm." Jenni smiled. "I can fire red laser beams from my hands and eye, and I can generate flashes of light. Not to mention I have hypnotic powers."
"I can mess up probability, like the Scarlet Witch." Vicki shrugged. "I also can charm people into doing what I want. I have a charm that gives me some other powers." She held her pendant. "This was all I had. I was left in front of a music store as a baby. I have no idea who my real parents are."
"My dad's a pro wrestler and my mom was a hippie." Jenni shrugged. "Not in an insulting way. What about you guys?" She saw that Gambit, Colossus, and Berzerker were staring at Jenni with hearts flying around their heads.
Uh oh. The Starr charm again. Vicki gulped. I have a feeling the other girls are not going to like this.
Uh oh. Paige Guthrie and Danielle Moon star thought as they watched through a window.
Well, well, well! Looks like the X-Boys have met their match! What'll result of this? What insanity will happen next? Will the X-Girls go after Jenni? Will Eric go to jail? What costumes will the Southside Misfits and X-Men wear? Find out in the next chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
